We had a fantastic experience with A Plus Catering for our company holiday party in San Francisco. I reached out with only about two weeks' notice, which can be stressful when trying to lock down a caterer, but the process couldn't have gone more smoothly. I worked with Jennine, and she was absolutely amazing -- super responsive, incredibly helpful, and very flexible when it came to making adjustments and working within our budget. She made everything feel easy and well thought out from start to finish. On the day of the event, the team arrived on time, handled setup seamlessly, and everything looked great. Most importantly, the food was delicious. We went with an appetizer-style dinner along with dessert, and it was a hit with everyone. I honestly couldn't have asked for more. A Plus Catering clearly caters to a wide range of events, and based on this experience, we will definitely be reaching out again for future team events. Highly recommend! read more

Jennine and her team catered a joint birthday party for me and my wife. It was wonderful! We hosted 50 guests in our house for hors d'oeuvres, followed by a buffet meal with selections for vegetarians and meat eaters. Great support in planning the menu, and the food was delicious. We also had a full bar with soft drinks, champagne, wine, beer and cocktails. A Plus Catering provided bartenders to staff the bar. The team showed up on time, set up quickly and was ready with service when the first guests arrived. They put out the buffet after folks had enjoyed the appetizers and served the food. They did a great job of picking up plates and glasses over the course of the evening, and left our kitchen and home tidy and organized when they left that evening. Fantastic experience -- would absolutely hire them again! read more

When I started out in a new position that involved a lot of event planning, I was immediately tasked with organizing a corporate breakfast for a big conference of around 100 people. I didn't know who I should work with, what type of food spread to go with, and I was a bit worried how it would turn out. Thanks to Jennine and the rest of her team at A Plus Catering, the event went so well and everyone was extremely well fed. I can genuinely say that seeing everybody talk about how good the food was and have a pleasant experience because of it, truly made me feel at ease and reflects on the quality of Jennine's company. I would recommend anyone to work with A Plus and I know I will be in touch with her for our next event. read more

Originally hired Jennine to cater a wedding Where she would be cooking onsite at the wedding venue. We ended up changing the venue 3 months in advance of the event and had her cater a different event at a location that didn't have an onsite kitchen. Unfortunately it seemed like since the food no longer would be cooked onsite, Jennine took this opportunity to be a bit deceptive and showed up to our event with food that looked and tasted like it came from the deli @ Costco. The presentation of the food was not good and it tasted even worst. I personally only liked 1 item on the menu and it seemed like it was 1 of the 2 items that she actually cooked. Seemed like the Mac-n-Cheese and fish was cooked but it was very disturbing that she would charge us for a full menu of catered food that was to be cooked at her business to find out most of the food came from the Costco deli. The Bride was VERY disappointed. We will NOT be able to recommend this caterer and have NO interest in hiring them again. She did cater dessert for the wedding that tasted and looked good, couldn't say the same for the dinner. Some pics included. in response to you reply: All of the food you delivered to the event was packed up because it was paid for and we wanted to see if any of the guests that attended to event wanted to take it to go. We was not going to allow you to take it back and pass it on the other non-suspecting clients. The only food that I personally liked was the fish so I made a togo container of that. I didn't go any farther into detail because I didn't want to state it above but since you mentioned it, All the rest of the food that was packed up tasted so bad, NO ONE wanted to take it so it set in the fridge at that hotel and was later thrown away the next day after everyone made it clear they didn't want it. Again the food's quality was that of the Store deli and did not taste good. Interesting I saw another review on here that said seemed like their food came from the Safeway deli. Hopefully you'll learn from thsee reviews and provide better service and actually cook the food for your future clients. read more

Really average. Jennine is a poor communicator and oversold the quality. See picture for all details.

Had a lovely experience working with Jennine and her team for a 150-person all-day conference and reception. She navigated with challenge of a tricky 4th floor location with a smile. The food was fantastic as well. I recommend the veggie lasagna and the onion tartlets, delish! read more

I had A Plus Catering for my 21st birthday party, and I honestly couldn't have asked for a better experience! From the very beginning, the communication with Jennine, the owner, was amazing--she helped guide me through the menu and made sure everything fit the vibe I wanted for the night. On the day of my party, the team showed up on time, set everything up beautifully, and the food was absolutely incredible. My friends and family couldn't stop talking about how delicious everything was and the Tri-tip especially was everyone's favorite! read more

Well, I can only give you ten stars out of five. The hits of the evening were the fried chicken and the greens. The waiters were top notch, professional, provided fantastic service and seem to enjoy themselves. From start to finish, everything was perfect. Could not be happier and will encourage any organization to use your services. Ken Hedrick President of the Congregation St. Francis Lutheran read more

Jennine and Freddy were wonderful - great food, lovely presentation and our guests had a wonderful time. The pick up and drop off were a bit challenging due to the lack of parking in front of our building in downtown SF, but they rolled with it and we were able to have a successful event that our guests, and the partners at my firm, all enjoyed! Would absolutely hire them to cater a future event! read more

What an amazing group. We had a corporate event with aplus and the food was off the charts and the catering team charming and professional. They were on time, on budget, and professional throughout. I loved that they provided full set up of tables, bar, sound , etc. The charcuterie table was beautiful and the passed food exceptional. I very much enjoyed the filet mignonette chimichurri item and the French onion tartlets. I would hire Aplus again in a heartbeat. Thanks all! read more

A Plus did a wonderful job on a last minute assignment for a party with 60 people. The passed appetizers were good and the pulled pork was delicious. The team, led by the personable and efficient Jennine, arrived ahead of time and prepared the appetizers. They had plenty of vegetarian options and even adapted one of the appetizers to be vegan during the party. Jennine designed a signature cocktail for the party and her staff ran out to the liquor store when we needed more mixers since the cocktails were such a hit. She also grabbed some glassware at the last minute too. The A Plus team was professional and friendly and the guests enjoyed interacting with them. The bartender and bar back did a good job. The team kept up with dishes and ran the dishwasher during the party. They left my house and kitchen clean and left me a few leftovers (but the guests ate most of the food, which is what you want). I'd definitely recommend A Plus catering. read more

Jennine and her team were recommended by our usual caterer that was unavailable for our 300 person wine event. Jennine exceed every expectation and will now be our go-to caterer for all our corporate events in San Francisco. Every detail was covered, communication was great from start to finish and the staff was friendly and took direction well. We can't wait to book again for our next large event! read more

We hired Aplus catering in November to cater a holiday meal for 3 work sites consisting of approximately 200 people. The food and service was so amazing that we hired them again in December. Jennine was thorough, patient, accommodating and truly put forth an effort to find which catering options would work best for us around menu items that were budget friendly. She went above and beyond to ensure we were satisfied not only with the quality of food but ensuring there was plenty of it. The food was so good, man oh man, was the food good. The pork ribs were to die for and the fried chicken was heavenly, and the peach cobbler was perfect!!! I would give them 10 stars if I could. Thank you Aplus for all you have done to provide such a memorable catering experience read more

Jennine really came through in the clutch for us. We were planning a large wedding reception and our first caterer backed out. She came to the rescue and put on a marvelous event for 300 people. Her crew was very professional, prompt and efficient. The passed appetizers and sit down chicken and pasta dinner with caesar salad were all delicious and served with a smile and the tiramisu dessert was to die for! Thanks to her our guests came away fat, sassy and happy! Kevin C. Oakland, CA. read more

Jeannine was easy to work with in designing our meal needs for our work holiday party. She and her bartender arrived on time and ready to serve. The food was excellent, and healthy just as we ordered. We would absolutely work with Jeannine and team again!! read more

I worked with Jennine and Freddy, both were friendly and prompt. Ordering catering as never been easier! A few emails exchanged and a month later we had a great meal. A Plus set up a luncheon for our annual "all staff" meeting serving 50 people. We had a delicious meal with enough food leftover for people to take home. A Plus arrived early and set up the food buffet style. My staff came to me with very positive feedback. Many asked or commented "where is this from!?" or "I wish they catered the last meeting!". This time around we chose the BBQ style luncheon. Our feast included grilled chicken, pulled pork, brisket, corn, baked beans, and rolls with butter. I would recommend to anyone looking to cater a big event with a lot of hungry attendees! read more

A Plus catered our sons backyard engagement party for about 70 people. 5 appetizers were passed around on a 93 degree day with MANY stairs. Everything from the first phone call sold me. Jennine was enthusiastic, friendly and helpful. Chef Freddy and staff arrived as scheduled - just easy to work with. I missed one of the apps, but according to others it was great. They willingly passed shrimp that we had made. I think my personal favorite was the bacon/date wrapped - yum! I would use them again, recommend them and write a review. Also, thought they were reasonably priced! read more

Hired A Plus Catering again for my housewarming in SOMA and everything went more than smoothly as usual. My Advice to Customers considering A Plus Catering: 1. Communicate your requests --clearly-- and ask questions if you're uncertain. My professional and educational background are in food & beverage entrepreneurship, and I have extremely high expectations when it comes to event planning & catering. Vague requests and expectations like 'interesting food' (see review below) are asking for disaster because no one knows what 'interesting' means to you. 2. You get what you pay for - ask & trust A Plus Catering on the # of staff needed. If you skimp and underquote your guest count in hopes to get a lower price, or try to squeeze a food & drinks event for many people with a low budget, you will end up paying through a poorly executed event due to i) event staff stretched too thin, ii) guests waiting in line, as well as iii) no time leftover for cleanup (staff are paid by the hour). Catering companies start working on your event from the initial planning, to preparing food & drink before your event even starts, coordinating staffing, and executing the event --- on top of paying their staff for all the pre-planning, covering all food & material costs, & paying the staff to work the actual event, the company still needs to make a profit. So, if you try to skimp on the total cost, do not expect to get fancy food & an unlimited team of Cinderellas staying overtime to clean your party's mess, when you didn't allocate this in the budget. Catering is a luxury service - if you're not ready to pay for it, then DIY. ------ Overall, hiring A Plus Catering allowed me to enjoy time with my guests. Our server, Dalaysha, left my house and kitchen super clean (as usual), meaning there was very little post-event cleanup needed on my part. She collected empty cups and plates throughout the evening on top of serving hoes d'oevres. Jennine (business operator) was great in coordinating in advance. Everyone at A Plus Catering is super friendly and professional. Highly recommend and will be using their services again for my next event. Thank you! read more

I recently hired this company to replace a previous caterer. Jennine was very thorough and knowledgeable and made me feel at ease. She is a one stop shop for a lot of things for a wedding.

Our guests were amazed at the meal and service. No one's dinner plate had food on it. We recommend highly. read more
